Website Advertising

PowerWire’s website has two major banner positions.

These are the leader board and the side panel.

Leader Board

This is the prime position at the top of the website page and appears on all pages of the website. E.g. when a reader opens an article the leader board is still at the top of the page they have opened.

The banner can be linked to your web-site and be GIF format.

Side Panel

This rectangular position is set within the right-hand column of the website and again appears on further pages when opened.

Website Pricing

PowerWire’s bookings run per calendar month, i.e. if an advert is posted on the PowerWire website from the 5th January, it is taken down on the 5th February.


Images must be either .png/.jpg or .gif format and received by PowerWire at least seven days prior to publication.
